Beyonce & Tina Turner Perform "Proud Mary" (50th GRAMMYs)
Beyonce's soaring tribute to "Sarah Vaughan, Aretha Franklin, Chaka Kahn and historical women" who performed on the GRAMMYs stage follows her equally impressive teaming with Prince in 2004. After listing some of the iconic female artists that paved a way for her, Beyonce proudly introduced Tina Turner as "the one legend who captures the essence of all of these ladies." It's a rocking performance that shows off the raw and undisputed talent of these two fine ladies that wowed the crowd and is truly one of GRAMMYs best moments to date. It's also one of Turner's very last high-profile public performances. She was 68 years-old at the time and decided to come out of retirement to perform with Beyonce that was her way of passing the torch to a new generation of artists.
Beyonce not making the top 10 performances list? Oh dear. Has she had a top 10 performance on any award show?
Her performance of RTW at Billboard awards was wonderful. Not as good and remembered as Pink's grammy performance of course...but then again nothing is.
